The 5 Stages of Jingle Ball FOMO

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at SCSU chapter.

Is it even possible to get your hands on some Jingle Ball tickets? Obviously it is because there’s proof. But how do they do it? An event where the nose bleed seats are better than no ticket at all, there is some serious FOMO when you’re not one of the lucky ones there.

1. Excitement 

For some reason you’re about as pumped as the people actually going. Only difference is that you won’t be there.

2. Jitters

Can’t wait to see all these amazing performers kill it! From your phone….at home.

3. Denial

How can it be possible that another year of Jingle Ball has arrived and you were not able to get tickets? You promised yourself last December that this would be your Jingle Ball year.

4. Acceptance 

You’ve come to some sort of resolution with yourself, you’ll be fine, it’s just a concert. An incredible one…that you’re not there for.

5. Creeping

It’s not really “creeping”, more like living vicariously through the social media of everyone who is there.

Another year, no Jingle Ball for us.
